4th Grade Living Leader Museum

During 4th grade's How We Organize Ourselves unit, they studied the central idea: Conditions within a community dictate the types of leaders that emerge. One of their activities was to construct a Leader Living Museum. The 4th grade students used their research skills to learn more about important leaders, then developed speeches using the information from their research. Each student created a poster with their leader on it, and other students could "push a button" and hear the speech of that leader.
